Artist/Band: Rosanne Cash
Lyrics for Song: My Old Man
Lyrics for Album: Somewhere In The Stars: Rhythm & Romance [2009]



The old man is laughing tonight


He's young beyond his fears


But then the smile drops from his eyes


And we all wind up in tears





The old man's crying tonight


'Cause it all happened so fast


He's frightened by the future


Embarrassed by the past





So let him be who he wants to be


'Cause he ain't ever gonna be young again


And let him see who he needs to see


'Cause he never had too many friends


And ask him how he remembers me


'Cause I want to know where I stand


How I love my old man





The old man's restless tonight


Just trying to kill his pain


He believes what he says he believes


But that don't make him a saint





The old man's lonesome tonight


And he just wants to go home


All those fools who stand in his way


Why can't they leave him alone





So let him be who he wants to be


'Cause he ain't ever gonna be young again


And let him see who he needs to see


'Cause he never had too many friends


And ask how he remembers me


'Cause I want to know where I stand


How I love my old man
